It works very well out of the box on every distro I've tried. A very good productivity tool for any Linux user.
Ulauncher is a fast, easy app launcher for Linux. It's a good replacement for Spotlight for Linux users
I used about one month. It is useful for Linux users. But if we want to install some extensions probably not working... We need OS developers :)
It is smooth sailing, works well and has a repository of extensions to expand the functionality. It's a gem that has not yet been discovered by most people.
This is awesome. However, at a certain point, you can only optimize so much and Gnome 4 is so well built with the newest Ubuntu and Fedora releases. Depending on exact needs, this can save a bunch of time and it is definitely an awesome tool, just don't sink more time into the tool than you would be productive.
I use Ulauncher on all my Linux machines and like it so much I wish it was ported for Mac!
I think its one of the best application launcher for Linux
